Hello,

Fritz is designed to play well in a "normal" game of chess.  Fritz would have
absolutely slaughtered the opponent a LOOOONG time before that position arose
had the opponent been playing as per the sample line leading to that position.
The chances of a position like that ever coming up in a real game of chess are
about nil.  If I were Frans, I wouldn't even give this position a second of my
thought (well, beyond possible implications that Fritz' capture extensions are a
bit too greedy..).


Regards,
Adrien.
